In light of the drought
emergency in California, the House leadership has scheduled a vote for next
week on H.R.
3964, the comprehensive water fix introduced in the House by the entire
California GOP delegation. The bill has already provoked opposition from Governor
Brown's administration and from the usual suspects who have resisted
every significant effort to bring relief to drought-stricken Californians.
Nevertheless, Speaker of the House John Boehner understands the situation's
urgency and is determined to quickly submit this bill for a vote.
